> you can start teaching with your bachelors but are expected to get your masters in pretty short order. This applies to all grade levels.

This is true of public schools. Private schools in CT have to be periodically accredited but they're able to set their own standards for teachers.

Right, which is why I said that stlouisbrowns is mostly correct. They just missed the part about being able to start with your bachelors and what grade levels it applied to.

Private school teachers in CT don't need to be certified or have a masters degree, or be working towards one. Each school sets the qualifications for their teachers.

We were talking about public school and they had already indicated that private schools have a different set of rules.

No one is disagreeing with you, just pointing out its already been said.
